RFC 7474
Title: Security Extension for OSPFv2 When
Using Manual Key Management

I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ospf-security-extension-manual-keying-11.txt
URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7474
The current OSPFv2 cryptographic authentication mechanism as defined
in RFCs 2328 and 5709 is vulnerable to both inter-session and intra-
session replay attacks when using manual keying. Additionally, the
existing cryptographic authentication mechanism does not cover the IP
header. This omission can be exploited to carry out various types of
attacks.
This document defines changes to the authentication sequence number
mechanism that will protect OSPFv2 from both inter-session and intra-
session replay attacks when using manual keys for securing OSPFv2
protocol packets. Additionally, we also describe some changes in the
cryptographic hash computation that will eliminate attacks resulting
from OSPFv2 not protecting the IP header.
This document is a product of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
